> Maybe a new function should allow any sorting order?
FWIW:
Icicles lets a caller of a function such as
`completing-read' specify a set of sort functions
and the initial one to use.
And users can change among those sort functions
on the fly - by cycling them or inputting the name
(with completion of course). Reverse the current
sort order with a numeric prefix arg.
User switching of sort order is _very_ useful, IMO.
(And yes, incremental updating of *Completions"
needs to automatically re-sort.)

FWIW2:
In library `sortie.el' I implemented the same thing,
without Icicles, using only vanilla Emacs completion
metadata entries `display-sort-function' and
`cycle-sort-function'.
[I don't know of another library (besides Icicles)
that provides interactive changing of sort order -
but maybe there is one now.]
